Chapter 540           The three armies gathered

The Xifan Army, who had fled all the way, was already exhausted and overdrawn to its limit.

Now facing the ambush from tens of thousands of Sand Navy, how can they still hold on?

Under the full attack of the soldiers of the Sha Navy, the remnants of the Xifan Army collapsed.

On the battlefield, a large number of soldiers from the Xifan Army were killed and fell to the ground.

People panicked and fled in scattered.

But they are all in all directions, and there are sand navys, so how can they run out?

The battle between the two sides lasted only for more than an hour and then it was over.

The remnants of the Xifan Army were almost wiped out by the Wan army.

The only regret is that Salman, the first commander of the Espanyol Kingdom, actually broke out in the chaos and fled without knowing where to go.

The soldiers of the Sand Navy were so angry that they stamped their feet repeatedly for Salman's escape.

However, Prince Amro and Princess Amani were both excited and excited.

This battle was a great victory for their Wan army against the people of the Xifan with their own strength.

It has been too long since Wanguo had achieved such a big victory, which is really exciting.

Afterwards, the Shahai City Resistance Army headed by Alanno escorted more than a thousand surviving Xifan Army prisoners to join the Zhou army and the Saro army.

After the two sides met, Amuro and Amani couldn't hide their excitement on their faces and talked endlessly to Li Yu about how wonderful this battle was.

Li Yu praised the amuro and Amani siblings who were overly excited, and then he looked at Arano.

Arano is a man in his thirties, with a burly figure, a rough face, a beard all over his face, and a fierce bandit-like spirit.

If you look at the watch alone, anyone will think that Arano is just a warrior.

In fact, Alanno was born into a noble family in Wanguo. He has been smart since childhood and read a lot of books. In terms of knowledge, he is not only proficient in Wanguo culture, but also proficient in Zhou culture.

Alannuo walked to Li Yu, stroked his chest and bowed, and said, "Alannuo, the lord of Shahai City, the foreign minister, pays homage to His Highness, King Wu of Zhou!"

Li Yu waved his hand to him and signaled him to exempt him from the gift.

Alano continued to bow and said, "In this battle, we failed to capture the thief's leader, so Salman escaped by chance. Please forgive His Highness the King of Wu!"

Li Yu comforted: "In this battle, General Alano fought very well and successfully eliminated the many minions around Salman. Now, Salman is no longer worth worrying about!"

If you have no soldiers, no generals, Salman, who has no generals, can't cause too much storm even if he has the strength.

Upon hearing this, Alano owed Li Yu again.

He was far less excited than Amro and Amani.

The King of Wu of Zhou led only 500,000 temporarily pieced together shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and withstood the fierce and unstoppable Xifan Army in Qinzhou.

In the subsequent series of battles, the Zhou army not only successfully blocked the Xifan Army's advance south, but also defeated the main force of the Xifan Army.

Compared with Li Yu, the results they achieved are far behind.

Arano sincerely exclaimed: "His Royal Highness of the King of Wu, wise and powerful, and foreign ministers admire him!"

Li Yu smiled and said, "General Alano is not inferior to him!"

"Your Highness of the King of Wu defeated the foreign ministers!"

The two sides praised each other, and Li Yu took the lead in getting to the point and asked: "General Alano, don't you know if your army has any extra food or grass?"

The Zhou army and the Saro Legion were the Wan Kingdom that rushed to the remnants of the Xifan Army.

After the pursuit battle along the way, the remnants of the Xifan Army were looking for food everywhere, and the Zhou army and the Saro Legion were the same.

Their marching speed was too fast, and the supply team behind them had been far away.

At present, the military rations carried by the Zhou army are almost gone.

The military rations are in urgent need, which is the most serious problem faced by the Zhou army and the Saro army.

"this……"

Arano looked puzzled.

In fact, there is not much food left in the Sand Navy.

Originally, their food was quite sufficient, but with the arrival of Amro and Amani, a large number of new recruits joined.

The Sha Hai Army has expanded from a few thousand people to tens of thousands of people today. The military rations consumed hugely and could not be supported by relying solely on Sha Haicheng.

Seeing Alanno's face of embarrassment, Li Yu immediately judged that the food of the Alanno tribe was not rich.

He said: "Our army's military rations are less than three days' timely. If we cannot be replenished in time, our army can only withdraw from Zhou State on the same route!"

Hearing this, the generals and officials in Wan changed their faces.

At this critical moment, how could the Zhou army withdraw its troops?

Salman, who escaped, must have gone to the capital.

If our side did not strike while the iron was hot and took the capital in one go, and wait until the Xifan army recovered, it would be easier for our side to capture the capital again!

But the Sha Navy has only tens of thousands of people, and most of them are new recruits, with weak combat power. It is okay to fight dogs like the remnants of the Xifan Army. If you really want to attack the capital, there is almost no possibility of success.

Therefore, the main thing to regain the capital was to rely on the efforts of Zhou army.

A general from Wan State frowned and said, "Your Highness, the King of Wu, as far as we know, the Xifan army currently stationed in the capital has only more than 10,000 troops stationed in the capital. Now is a good opportunity to regain the capital in one fell swoop, so you must not miss it!"

Another general said quickly: "That's right! Once the people of Xifan recruited troops from all over the country and gathered in the capital. With the city defense of the capital, we will be very difficult to conquer it!"

Li Yu looked at everyone and said seriously: "You are right, but the army cannot have no food for a day, and I cannot take the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the risk!"

Go and help you take back the capital.

The generals of Wan Kingdom were still going to speak, and Alano waved his hand to everyone.

What people are talking about is not an excuse. The issue of military rations is indeed directly related to the life and death of an army, and it is impossible to be careless.

If the problem of military rations cannot be solved, the Zhou army can only retreat and there is no other way.

Arano pondered for a moment and said word by word: "Charge grain on the spot!"

The generals of the Wan army looked at each other.

Recruiting grain on the spot?

How to get it?

Since Wan State was occupied by the Xifan Army, the people of Wan State in various places have no idea how many times they have been plundered by the Xifan Army.

The food of each household is difficult to even self-sufficiency and is regarded as a life-saving thing.

Who would take out their own food and serve it as military ration for its own side?

Even Amro felt that Alanno was unrealistic and shook his head and said, "This... General Alanno, I'm afraid, is very difficult!"

Alano said thoughtfully: "We can write an IOU for the people and repay it twice in the future!"

Amro grinned and said, "This is not a double repayment issue!"

The problem is that the people now need food to fill their stomachs and save their lives!

Alanno's eyes were deep and he said word by word: "If the people refuse to hand over the food in their families, then we can only force the levy!"

"ah?"

As soon as he said this, everyone present opened their eyes wide in shock and horror, opened their mouths wide, and stared at Arano blankly.
